Pupil Premium and Year 7 Literacy & Numeracy Catch-Up Premium Strategy
Statement
Kingsdale Foundation School 2016 – 17 The Pupil Premium Grant (PPG) is a fund allocated by the government to raise the attainment of disadvantaged pupils up to the age of 16 (end of Key Stage 4) and close the performance gap between them and their peers. This group of disadvantaged pupils is comprised of those:
• eligible for Free School Meals (FSM)
• that are Looked After and children that are adopted
• registered as eligible for Free School Meals at any point in the previous
6 years
• children of armed forces personnel
The Year 7 Literacy and Numeracy Catch-Up premium provides schools with an additional £500 for each Year 7 pupil who did not achieve at least Level 4 in reading and/or mathematics at the end of Key Stage 2.
At Kingsdale approximately 25% of our students (over 400) are eligible for pupil
premium funding. As a group nationally, pupils who have been eligible for pupil
premium funding, at any point in time, achieve consistently lower educational
outcomes than those who have never been eligible for it. The pupil premium
funding is not ring-fenced to individual pupils who are eligible and can be spent in
any way that a school sees fit, so long as the school can demonstrate that the
specific needs of the pupils eligible for the pupil premium have been addressed
and how this specific additional funding is being used to compensate for the
identified disadvantage.
If you feel your child may be eligible for FSM support but is not currently
receiving it please click on this Eligibility For Free School Meals Criteria link or
contact Ms S. Cowling by phone or via [email protected] for
further clarification. It is easy to check and means that the school receives the
correct funding. Where your child currently receives or used to receive FSM

support and you feel that there is something specific that would further enhance
their learning, please contact their Head of Learning to discuss further.
Aims and Objectives
We are committed to raise the achievement of all students as far as we are able
and to ensuring that students, regardless of financial disadvantage, make at least
the expected progress of which they are capable; although we always aim for
more.
We are committed to narrowing the achievement gap between disadvantaged
and non-disadvantaged students of the same ability or potential so that it no
longer exists or is minimised. We are also committed to improving social mobility
and enhancing social capital inside and outside of school for these students. We
seek to ensure that our disadvantaged students are properly reflected in
participation and engagement levels in all aspects of the school’s endeavours
and wider achievements.
We have identified that in every year group the prior attainment of pupil
premium students based on Key Stage 2 data is lower than their peers.
Therefore, we are of the view that for the sake of equality and fairness our aim
should be to eliminate or reduce further the attainment gaps, where they exist,
across equivalent ability bands and not across the homogeneous groups (i.e.
pupil premium and non pupil premium) as a whole; as to do otherwise would
suggest that we were prepared for our non-eligible pupil premium students to
underachieve in relative terms.
Barriers to Learning for Pupil Premium Students
• Low literacy & numeracy on entry to Year 7 (e.g. below Level 4) impedes progress in Year 7 and beyond
• Poor attendance e.g. below 90% impacts negatively on progress in Year 7 and beyond
• SEN Registered need (K) and high incidence SEN challenges
• Students with behavioural or anxiety issues
• High mobility and changes of responsible Local Authority for Looked After Children
• Reduced access to supplementary provision and additional opportunities outside of school
3
Desired Outcomes
• Attainment of our students eligible for the pupil premium exceeds that for
equivalent students nationally across every statistically significant key
area
• Attainment of our students eligible for the pupil premium exceeds that for
all (pupil premium and non pupil premium) students nationally across
every statistically significant key area
• Attainment of our students eligible for the pupil premium is in line with
those for equivalent students of similar ability in the same prior ability
bands within the school at both Key Stages 3 & 4
• Attainment of our pupil premium students is in line with or exceeds the
outcomes for non pupil premium students nationally
• Engagement, participation and progression for students eligible for the
pupil premium is similar to their peers within the School. This should be
reflected in measurable outcomes such as attendance, further and higher
level study post 16, exclusion rates, receipt of awards, positions of
responsibility and representative activity e.g. prefects, school councillors,
participation in school teams/performances.
Supplementary Success Criteria
• Improvement in literacy and numeracy levels, to be in line with national expectations, of targeted pupil premium students demonstrated by their reading ages and similar numeracy based indicators
• Targeted pupil premium students make at least as much progress as non pupil premium students at Key Stage 3 so as to enable the majority to attain 4 levels of progress by the end of Key Stage 4
• Pupil premium students have as high a degree of engagement, participation and progress as non pupil premium students in the wide range of enrichment opportunities offered across the school
• Our pupil premium students compare favourably, for most criteria, against national expectations for all students as identified in the DfE performance tables.

How We Use Pupil Premium and Year 7 Literacy & Numeracy Catch-Up
Premium
We use pupil premium and year 7 catch-up funding to provide a number of
different interventions to help our targeted students to achieve and make good or
better progress. We adopt a two-pronged approach; one that deals with these
disadvantaged students as a group and a more individualised approach to meet
specific individual needs as and when necessary.
Pupil premium funding at Kingsdale has been used in whatever way that enables
the students to access the curriculum, flourish and develop as balanced persons.
This means that as well as the use of individual or small group tuition, the school
has used a variety of imaginative ways to address the specific needs of each
student.
Pupil premium funding is used beyond the classroom to broaden the experience
of students and develop their confidence, self- esteem and resilience. Among
the various uses are supporting students with extra curricular activities in sports,
arts and music as well as enabling students to experience optional school trips
and to participate in ‘Our Trips of a Lifetime’ programme.
We adopt a whole school approach focused on 3 broad areas:
• Academic & personal intervention and support including one-to-one and small
group tuition to maximise achievement and measurable outcomes
• Student welfare, guidance and engagement programmes including mentoring,
counselling and motivational support. This is especially important for more
vulnerable students that may lack the cultural capital that builds resilience
enabling them to persevere to successful completion of their studies. It also
incorporates developing leadership and aspirational qualities to enhance
possibilities for future success and progression
• Material support; this is the practical support that may have been identified by
pastoral or academic staff, such as, for example use of iPads, laptops to give
access to online resources
A more detailed breakdown of these activities and the costs are set out
below and in our Pupil Premium Intervention Plan for 2016-17, which can
be viewed at the end of this document.
5
Information and Expectations for 2016-17
• We have calculated that our Year 7 Literacy & Numeracy Catch-Up
Premium for 2016-17 will be £8,000 and subject to confirmation from the
DfE this amount will be used as the basis for our intervention funding in
this area.
Our Pupil Premium Grant for 2016-17 is £343,145.
• The percentage of pupil premium eligible students in school is approximately
25% across Key Stages 3 & 4
• By the end of Key Stage 3 our aim is for students eligible for pupil premium or
Year 7 catch-up premium to have made at least 2 levels of progress
• By the end of Key Stage 4 our aim is for most of our targeted students to make 4
levels of progress and none of them to have made less than 3
• Key Stage 4 students are set aspirational, more than nationally expected,
progress target grades for each subject. Their progress is monitored to ensure
that they are on track to reach their target grade
• Our educational and social needs pupil premium provision map is an in-depth
tool which brings together information about pupil premium eligible students and
maps the provisions we put in place for them; highlighting where there are
multiple needs such as English as an Additional Language and promoting
collaborative working/sharing good practice to enhance outcomes.
Planned Activities for 2016 -17
Subsequent to revisions following our annual impact review, we are
implementing an amended Year 7 Literacy and Numeracy Catch-up
Premium Programme. For the reasons outlined in the evaluation which follows,
this is based on our 2015-16 intervention plan which demonstrated evidence of
ongoing impact of specified interventions.
1. We are committed to extending funding iPads for new arrivals eligible for
Free School Meals and subsidising others such as those eligible for the
year 7 catch-up premium as part of our school wide mobile one to one
6
technology scheme. We estimate the cost of this will be an additional
£15,000 from the designated funding available this year.
2. We continue to fund a whole School Pupil Premium Champion and Pupil
Premium Champions in every curriculum area with responsibility time to
conduct their essential work. The cost of this provision equates to
approximately £20,000 per annum.
3. The impact of our interventions will be reviewed and adjusted as
appropriate on a termly basis.
Kingsdale Foundation School Pupil Premium and Year 7 Literacy & Numeracy Catch-Up Premium Evaluation of Use of Funds and Impact in 2015-2016
The amount of funding we were allocated for the Year 7 Literacy and
Numeracy Catch-Up Premium in 2015-2016 was £6,000.
The amount of funding we were allocated for the Pupil Premium Grant in
2015- 2016 was £359,975 (revised)
The Year 7 Literacy and Numeracy Catch-up Premium (£6,000) was used in part
to contribute to the following targeted activities for designated students:
• Individual tuition • Intensive small-group tuition • Year 6 Summer School to help these students accelerate their progress
and raise attainment over a short period of time • Homework and extra curricular clubs
We consider that the impact of our interventions funded by the pupil premium and year 7 catch-up premium to have been an overall success. The programmes have been refined to take into account the outcomes of our evaluations.
Year 7 Literacy Catch-up Student Progress 2015-16
• Above target: 50%
• On target: 38%
• 1x sub level below target: 6%
7
• 2x sub level or more below target: 6% Year 7 Literacy Pupil Premium Student Progress 2015-16
• Above target: 27%
• On target: 50%
• 1x sub level below target: 16%
• 2x sub level or more below target: 6%
Details of the impact of key interventions put in place for these students are summarised below. The Student View This initiative was run during lunchtimes and in extra English lessons. Pupil premium and year 7 literacy catch-up students were targeted and worked with teachers on writing, comprehension and reading skills. These sessions improved students’ writing, comprehension and reading skills dramatically and helped students to make better progress within their English lessons. Subsequent to this, participating students found a new enjoyment of English which helped them to improve faster. As shown during the previous year this is a very successful programme and helps students to make enhanced progress. To ensure that pupil premium and year 7 catch-up students have further targeted intervention, we are expanding the capacity of this provision as it is felt that even more can be done to identify areas of weakness in basic literacy skills as well as the skills required to do well in the new English curriculum. Targeted Intervention All Year 7s continued to be taught in small class sizes in English which allowed for a more personalised approach to teaching and learning enabling teachers to work closely with students on a one-to-one basis. Class teachers, having been made aware of their pupil premium and year 7 catch-up students, were able to give targeted intervention to these students within lessons empowering them to work on the key skills they required to reach their target grades; this proved successful as teachers were able to differentiate effectively and to work with students to ensure they made the desired progress.
8
Pupil Premium and Year 7 Literacy Catch-Up Monitoring All class teachers were made aware of their pupil premium and year 7 catch-up students and were asked to monitor their progress closely throughout the year. Students were placed on academic report if they were not making expected progress and contact with parents was made where additional support was required. Such close monitoring ensured teachers acted swiftly when they felt students were not making expected progress. Outcome of Pupil Premium and Year 7 Literacy Catch-Up Review To ensure that pupil premium and year 7 catch-up students make even better progress, this year the English department will not only continue to implement the previous interventions but will also be implementing a number of additional strategies. These include setting up Accelerated Reader which will allow students to progress in their reading systematically and access more challenging material to develop skills in English. The Library is also setting up a Reading Buddies scheme. Further author visits and writing workshops have been planned to take place throughout the year to encourage students to read and write creatively outside of their lessons and school. Year 7 Numeracy Catch-Up The targeted numeracy catch-up students in mathematics are placed in restricted ability banded groups with additional teaching support and/or an experienced specialist classroom teacher. Each child is given an accelerated target and their progress is tracked by the department’s Intervention Co-ordinator as well as being monitored by their classroom teacher. Students are provided with one-to-one support, access to iPads in lessons and a range of online resources to enrich their learning. Homework set is personalised to individual needs. Students have been encouraged to attend at least one supplementary class after school on a weekly basis for 6 weeks which has operated successfully. Their performance is reviewed at the end of each half term. A report card which is brought to each session is sent to parents at the end of each intervention cycle which records the students’ performance and attendance. The Intervention Co-ordinator reports to the Director of Mathematics who is charged with the duty of quality assuring the monitoring and development of the year 7 catch-up programme to maximise its success. Students’ attendance at these sessions has been consistently high throughout the year; most favouring the sessions run after school during the week in preference to those taking place on a Saturday. Student feedback clearly indicates the optional classes have been successful.

Year 7 Numeracy Catch-Up Student Progress 2015-16 • Overall 60% of all learners are making better than expected progress.
Girls are performing better than boys in this area by 12% - the underlying
reasons for this have been interrogated and outcomes used to improve
impact
• Catch-up students with Level 3 prior attainment at Key Stage 2 are
performing best in both gender groups - significantly above expectations;
suggesting that our intervention is making a difference.
• Students that are eligible for pupil premium are evenly and therefore
disproportionately represented in the year 7 catch-up programme
Outcome of Numeracy Catch-Up Review
• We have purchased more practical resources to enable students to
visually and kinaesthetically engage in different mathematical activities
• We have increased the use of iPads as learning and teaching resources in
the classroom
• We are developing these students’ problem solving strategies using
mathematical investigations and games to promote learning; this includes
participation in holiday Mathematics Activity Clubs
• We also plan to reward students who attend voluntary sessions regularly
and meet their targets with a free educational trip, of their choice, from the
options available.

• The table above confirms that our pupil premium students outperformed all students nationally across all key areas
• Performance of our pupil premium students is higher than or in line with the performance of non pupil premium students nationally across most key areas
• The headline figures at GCSE for students achieving A*-C in both English and maths show an attainment gap of over 11% between our pupil premium and non pupil premium cohorts; this does not relate entirely to differences in prior attainment. This pattern is repeated across numerous indicators
• Particular prior attainment bands of pupil premium students performed less well than others in maths, humanities and languages. An evaluation and review of the potential reasons for relative underperformance has been conducted and intervention plans implemented
We are very pleased to report that the attainment of students entitled to pupil
premium at Kingsdale has been rapidly improving over time in nearly all key
areas. This was exemplified in Summer 2016 with 69% of our pupil premium
students gaining A*-C GCSE grades in English & Mathematics. This compares
favourably with the national average for all students in 2016 which was 59%, a
10% positive difference and significantly higher than other pupil premium eligible
students nationally (43%); the performance for non pupil premium students
nationally was 70.6%. No pupil premium students were excluded either
permanently or for a fixed term period; a major contributory factor was the
targeted intervention in off-site provision, use of the school’s Annexe and
Learning Support Unit. Persistent absence amongst pupil premium students
was less than half the equivalent figure nationally. These are extremely positive
outcomes.
Whilst gaps in attainment across the entire pupil premium versus non pupil
premium cohorts appears to be worthy of investigation in some limited areas
within the school, the picture is becoming increasingly positive when like with
like comparisons are made taking into account prior ability bands, cohort size
and gender. However, further evaluation and intervention will be needed to close
differences in performance even more rapidly where identified.
